To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, HARRY P. MACDON- ALD and Ansus S. MACDONALD, citizens of the United States, residing at Montclair, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, and at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, respectively, have invented certain new and useful 1mrprovements in Book-Stacks, of which the e'ective ventilation is secured; the provi-` sion of improved shelf supporting means and the provision of improved means whereby the shelf supports are securely and rigidly bound together. Another object of the invention relates to the provision of f means whereby shelves of different depths may be supported and locked in the shelf supports. The more speciiic objects of our invention will appear in the description of the various gures of the drawings which form a part of this specification.

The above together with such other-objects as may hereinafter appear, orare incident to our invention, we attain byv means of a construction, various-embodimentsof which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein- Fig. 1 is a front elevation of the end two shelf supports of a stack range, illustrating the general arrangement of supporting structural work and showing the deck floors between ranges in cross section; 2 is a section taken on the line II-H of Fig. l looking in the direction of the arrow; Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on the line III-IH of Fig. 2; Figs. 4 and 5 are sections taken on the lines IV and V of Fig. 2 and illustrate details of the means for fastening the fixed bottom shelves extending between the upright shelf supports;` Fig. 6 is a section taken on the line VI of Fig. 2 andillustrates the manner in which the tops of the shelf supportsy are secured to the deck Hoor structure; Fig. 7 is a sectional view showing a modified arrangement of securing adjacent xed bottom shelves to one another, and Figs. 8 'and 9 are sectional views respectively taken on the lines VH1-*VIH and IX-IX of Fig. 7; Fig. 10 is a sectional view showing still another form of securing adjacent bottom shelves together, and Figs. 11 and 412 are sections taken respectively on the lines XI-X and X11-XH of Fig. 10; Fig. .13 is a section taken on .the line XIII of Fig. 3 and shows the means of supporting the deck floor plates on the deck floor structure; Figs. 14 and 15 are' respectively front and side elevations of a locking clip employed in locking the shelves in position in the shelf supports; Fig.- 16 is a transverse section through a stack in which the s helf supports are built up one upon another and the use of structural work dispensed with; Fig. 17 is a side elevation of Fig. 16, and Fig. 18 is a sectional view taken on the line 18-18 of Fig. 16 illustrating the manner in which the deck floor structural work is secured to the shelf supports; Fig. 19 is a side elevation of a stack which is substantially the same in general construction as that shown in Fig. 16 but which is rovided with an extended bottom ledge; Fig. 20 is a section taken on the line XX-XX of Fig. 19; Fig. 21 is ay section taken on the line XX-XXI of Fig. y

19; Fig. 22 is a section taken on the line XXII-KKH of Fig. 19; Fig. 16El is a sec- Figs. 25, 26, and 27 are enlarged sections taken on the lines c, b, and c respectively of Fig. 23; Fig. 28 is a sectional view illustrating a means for fastening the columns, shelf supports, and T-bars' together, v different from that shown in Fig. 2; and Fig. 29 is a section taken on the line d of Fi 28.

Referring now particularly to igs. 1, 2, and 3, it will be lseen that thel stack comprises a plurality of vertical uprights or shelf supports A which are securedto vertical structural columns B' and to the horizontal deck Hoor structure C, therange being built up l'in tiers as isy customary. The columns B are composed of two T-bars 7-7 which are placed back to bwk and secured l together by .means of the U-shaped strips or of shelf supports.

clips 8 which embrace the anges of the T- bars and extend substantially from deck floor to deck oor, the said U-clips being provided with punched out horns 9, which are adapted to support the shelves 10 in a manner which will hereinafter appear. The front edges of the shelf supports are provided with teeth 11 which are adapted to support the shelves 10 at the front portions thereof. The shelves 10v are preferably of the grid-iron type, the transverse bars being of an inverted U-shape whereby the innermost bar can be hooked over the horns 9.

At the front shelves 10 are provided with lugs 12 which are adapted to engage the teeth 11 of the shelf supports.

It will be noted that the columns B extend up through the range and that the deck floor structures or horizontal supporting structure C are secured thereto between the tiers The deck Hoor structure comprises the bars 13 which are preferably of a T-shape and extend between the ranges substantially from column to column with the base end up and the vehicle leg in substantial alinement with the flanges of the T- rails which form the columns B.' This is shown in Figs. 1, 2and 13. r1`he deck bars or rails 13 -are' secured to the columns vby means of the angle plates 14 which are arranged in pairs, one on each side of the column, and bolted to the column" and to the baseof the deck bar. By this construction it will be seen that the columns and the deck bars are secured together in alinement so that the side stresses will cause no distortion either of thecolumns or of the deck bars, this being an important feature of the invention. Also the connections between the columns and floor bars do not interfere with the book storage space. Longitudinally of the range the columns are secured together ,by means of the angle irons 15 (see Fig.,2)

whichl extend between the columns and are riveted or bolted thereto. This construction is simple and lends rigidity to the' entire stack.

The shelf supports A rest on theV deck bars at the bottom and at the top are secured to the deck bars of the next tier by means of the clips D, said clips having pairs of lugs vertical alinement and the clips D are sunk' tage resides in 'the fact that the deck bars and the intermediate shelf supports are in alinement whereby a uniform size of slabs for the deck floor can be used thereby improving the appearance of the floor.

The shelf supports A are widened out at the bottom, the projecting portions 2O being undercut as at 21 for a purpose which will hereinafteryappear. The shelf supports of a stack are secured together adjacent the bottom portions thereof by means of a fixed shelf which extends substantially across the entire stack, which, in the'construction illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, is of the double faced type. The shelf supports are provided on each side with lugs 23--23 etc. which support the fixed bottom shelves 22, and are also provided with apertures 24 which are located betweenthe lugs. The shelves 22 are provided with downwardly projecting ears 25 whirh are so arranged as .to register with the apertures 24 whereby they may be-brought into engagement with one another and fastened by meansof the bolts 26. The bottom shelves extending between adjacent shelf supports are therefore bound together and serve to hold the bottom of the sluit supports against displacement.

-It will also be noted that at one end of a shelf, the ears or lugs 25 are of greater width tlianat the other end, and overlap the apertures 24. Bolts 25a pass through such widened ears and secure the shelves to the shelf uprights.Y The construction will be clear on inspection of Fig. 2 and the sectional views shown/in Fi s. 4 and 5. The ends of the shelves 22 are ent over so as to hide the lugs 23 and present a neat appearance. It will be clear that by this construction the shelf supports A are securel and rigidly held against Vdisplacement or istortion. The widening of the shelf supports besides affording increased book space also has un additional function with respect to ventilation which will now be set forth.

i suiiciently in the shelf support A to lie with- I kExtending longitudinally of'the ranges center to center of the deck bars and vfrom curb angle to curb angle adjacent the ranges thus providing a complete flooring for each tier but leaving a ventilation space extending substantially between the curb angles whereby circulation between successive tiers is established. The fixed bottom shelves cover or protect these ventilation spaces and the overhanging portions or ledges of the shelf supports and of the fixed bottom shelves project over the ventilation spaces substantially to the vertical leg of the curb angles and thus prevent any books or other articles from falling down through the tiers. The construction is also such that injury to the users is prevented. Another advantage of this arrangement resides in the fact that while the ventilation spaces are adequately protected the aisle space is not encroached upon in such manner as to in any way discommode those using the books. At the same time the books themselves are protected frominjury caused by persons, book trucks, or other objects moving past the shelving. This construction also simplifies and cheap'- ens the structure of the stacks in another respect which will now be pointed'out.

From inspection of Fig. 3, which illustrates an entire range, it will be clear that the end shelf supports A of the range therein shown are solid and are of a width at the bottom substantially the distance between the intermediate shelf Supports at their widest point. The curb angles 27 extending vthe length of the range abut the edges of other advantages obtained, this bending of the curb angles is eliminated.

From inspection of Figs. l and 3 it will be seen that the vertical columns B at the ends of a range are composed of single T- bars which arel bound together from range to range by means of the angles 30which extend transversely of the ranges. Extending from the angles 30 at the ends of adjacent ranges are deck bars 13 which are secured to the angles 30 by means of the clips 3l and which serve to support the floor slabs of cross aisles. The ends of the angles 27 have projecting ears or lugs 2 7a which are adapted to rest upon the top of the angles 30, see Fig. 1. This affords a simple and convenient way of supporting the ends of the cil-rb angles and-at the same time rigidly binds the Structure of adjacent ranges -together A l j Referring now particularly to Fig. 13 it will be'seen tht ,the deck slabs are Sup` dium of a filler 32 which extends along the tops of the deck bars between the aisles. This filler comprises a sheet metal plate bent up at the sides so as to constitute in effect a channel which is filled with cement or other plastic material. The advantages of this construction are that it lightens the weight of the filler considerably and reduces the cost of the device. In addition the thin fillers can be more readily fastened to the floor bars or welded thereto. If bolts or rivets are `used countersunk heads therefor are not required, which also effects a saving in labor and expense. The trough shape of the fillers forms a good key for holding in the cement bedding for the floor slabs.

Directing attention again to the shelving 10 it will be noted that the shelves are locked in engagement with the horns 9 at their inner ends by means of a locking clip 33 which is illustrated in Figs. 14 and l5. The locking clips are provided at the top with lugs 34 which are adapted to extend past the horn immediately above and against which' the upper edge of the clips is adapted to abut. The clips are made of sheet metal and are re-bent in the central portion` thereof to provide a lip 35 which projects over the innermost cross bar of the shelf.- By this construction the shelves are locked in position and can not swing upwardly from off the horns. The clips are held in place by means of the lugs 34. We are thus enabledto use shelves of varying widths in the same general construction without liability of the shelves becoming displaced. It will also be seen that by this construction' the shelf supports can be made of uniform width and will nevertheless accommodate shelves of different sizes and that the books of various sizes may be shelved together as required by their classification without the necessity of providing maximum width shelves throughout the entire stack. This arrangement is of particular advantage in connection with a stack having ledge bottom shelves. In' this form a wide shelf can be` used without en- -it will be seen croachingon the walking space of the aisles.

Referring now to Fi that the bottom shelves 22 closely embrace the central columns and are thereby held Aagainst lateral displacement. While the construction fof Fi 7 is a modification of our invention, yet 1n the respect mentioned the construction is the same as that previously described. This form of supporting the shelves is also advantageous inasmuch as the use of supplemental holding means ysuch for example as `tap screws and bolts together with the drilling of holes in the shelf supports is dispensedwjith. The apertures 24 .i the shelf Suprert's which are reqilred for the fastening together of adjacent bottom 22 together in the position shown in igs. 2, d, and 5, they are prevented from springing up or becoming otherwisel distorted. Re ferring now to'those features of the device of Fig-h7, which are modifications of the invention, it will be seen that each bottom shelf is provided along one edge with a plurality of lugs 36 which are adapted to project through the apertures 2l in the shelf supports A and adapted to support the end of the adjacent bottom shelf which is fasl tened to said lugs by means of cquntersunk bolts 3'? (see Fig. 8). As in the construction previously described the shelf supports are provided with a. plurality of lugs 23 which support the bottom shelves (see Fig. 9).

ln 'Fig l0, we have illustrated still another manner of fastening the fixed bottom shelves together. ln this form, the shelves are provided at each end with downwardly projecting lugs 38, which are bolted to the shelf supports by the screws 39 and nuts il-O, the apertures di for receiving the screws being cast into the shelf supports. This provides a simple, inexpensive but secure means for binding the shelves together. Screw heads on the book supporting surfaces are also done away with.

Attention is now directed to lligsul, l?, and -l8 wherein we have illustrated a stach in which the use of the vertical supporting structure is dispensed with. ln this form of stack, the double faced upright shelf supports A are imposed upon one another in tiers, and are provided with lugs l2 and i3 which are so disposed as to aline when the shelf supports are superimposed. The lined bottom shelves which are interposed between the tiers of shelf supports in the manner illustrated in Fig. 16a are provided at one end with lugs le underlapping the adjacent bottom shelf. The shelf supports and bottom shelves are tied together by the screws 46 which pass through the lugs 42, ed, .and 43 and shelves 22, and by the nuts 47. This serves to securely and rigidly fasten the parts together and holds the shelf supports against twisting or lateral displacement. lt will be obvious that any of the other forms of fastening the fixed bottom shelves could be employed. The arrangement is simple and the parts are easily assembled, while the floor bars do not eX- tend into the book space and the entire space from bottom shelf to bottom shelf of the tiers'can be utilized for storing purposes.,

nemers of the deck bars rest on projections X on the shelf supports andare fastened to the lugs by means of the tap screws 49 or bolts (see Fig: 18). The ranges are thus bound laterally into a rigid structure. ln this construction the ventilation spaces are covered as before but the shelf supports are also provided with ledges at the top to register with the widened or ledge portions of the bottoni of the superimposed shelf supports.

Jhttention is now directed to Figs. 19 to 22 wherein we have illustrated an improved form of ledge shelf stack. ln this type the shelf' supports A are double faced and are provided with a wide ledge A" on each side. The shelf supports are provided with anges 50 located in the plane of the top of the ledges A. and the flanges have apertured lugs 5l. The fixed ledge shelves 52 extend between adjacent shelf supports ,and are fastened. to the lugs 5l by bolts 52, the flanges 5G serving to support the shelves. The overhanging portions of the shelves are carried on the bars 54 and the plate 55 which serves to cover up the adjacent edges of the shelves. rllhe screws 56 securely bind the plates 55, bars 5e, and shelves to the shelf supports. The shelves are cut away to freely slip lover the vertical stidening ribs Am of the shelf supports and the flanges 50 are carried around said stidening ribs to support the edges of the cutaway portions of the shelves.

The chief advantage of this construction 1esides in the fact that the ledge shelves can io placed in position after the rest of the case has been erected. The parts are easily assembled and are strong and economical. yl`he joints between ledge shelves are entirely covered and the ledge shelves may alsov be secured to shelf supports in any of the various ways described for the bottom fixed shelves.

Referring now to Figs. 23 to 27 inclusive, it will be seen that in said gures we have illustrated in detailed form the construction of the end supports of a range. The shelf supports A are single panels of the double faced type, secured at the top to the angles 3,0. Adjacent the central portion of a shelf support and extending substantially from the top to the bottom thereof is an offset portion or panel 60 adapted to receive the base of the vertical column B. Extending from the top of the panel 60 to a point substantially midway ofthe ends thereof, is a slot or groove 6l, which in con junction with the column B forms a shallow trough or conduit for the wires of the lighting system, such conduit being closed by a removable cover ,plate G2. The conduit terminates at the bottom in a junction box 63. This construction provides a simple and convenient means for accommodating lOl) the wires, lends attractiveness to the appearance of the stacks, and is inexpensive since the parts with the exception of the cover plate, can be cast integral with the panels.

In Figs. 28 and 29 we have illustrated an additional means for fastening the shelf supports, vertical columns, and lioor bars to-A gether, the construction resembling in general features that shown in Fig. 2. As before. shown, plates 14 bind together the columns, the floor bars, Aand the tops of the shelf supports, the plates overlapping such parts on opposite sides and being bolted or riveted in place. At the bottom, the shelf supports are bound together and braced fby the shelves 22. This construction is simple and rigid and obviates the use ,of supplementary holding means for the upper portions of the shelf supports.
